Do you pick one or two? Do you try to do all? I have a medium size church that has most adults in one Bible guide series from Lifeway and another adult group using a second. Our youth, children and preschoolers are all on different topics. I have to admit that promotion is not my gift. </p>

<p>Also, what should I use in the display besides books and movies? </p>

Of their ~160 attendees the Sunday of their survey, only 17 responded and 3 of those were from the team! I had previously scoured this website (love our CLN!!) and had several of YOUR tips ready. Here are a few:</p><ul><li>12 in '12 : reading 1 book per month for a total of 12 in the year 2012</li><li>Taking the books to the people: since the library is on the 2nd floor, we discussed taking a variety down to the high traffic areas. 2 were picked and will be implemented soon after the Christmas season.</li><li>Putting book reviews in the bulletin/newsletter.</li></ul><p> </p><p>Some things that they thought of:</p><ul><li>Let's ask our congregation members, "What are you currently reading? Do you know if that is available in the library? Might you be willing to donate it after you finish?"</li><li>Taking the children's SS classes into the library for a Sunday. Either as a library time or just to teach in that area to expose the kiddos to the books!</li></ul><p> </p><p>I also pointed out that much of what I brought to them was found here and gave them the site address. Hope this helps others! Merry Christmas everyone! See you in March, April and / or May!</p><p>Jenn Burwell</p><p>CLM Reg 2 Rep</p></div>
